Vampire Dante Gabriel is starving. What he craves is red gold—human blood. After being held captive as a blood slave to a female vampire for years, he has finally escaped. Unchained at last, he follows his nose to the nearest blood bank to sate his hunger.
ER nurseErin Hamilton expects just another busy night shift…until she finds a gorgeous stranger vandalizing the hospital blood bank. Though her logic tells her to turn him in, she’s pulled by stronger and unfamiliar emotions to protect the man who seems oddly infatuated with her scent. Chemistry sizzles between them, but Dante, plagued by nightmares of his time in captivity, fears he won’t be able to control himself…especially when he discovers a secret she doesn’t even know she’s hiding.

We start off with a character named Dante who we find out is being held prisoner. He gets free and ends up the hospital trying to drink the blood bags. There is where we meet Erin, who is an ER nurse. There is a connection between these two and neither one of them can understand why.

We follow the journey of Dante trying to adjust to life 10 years after being taken and how to not end back up with the one who took him. I felt so sorry Dante, he has these terrible memories of being taken and tortured. He is having the worst case of PTSD but he’s not opening up to his family. Along with that, he as this strong connection with a woman that he can’t understand.

Erin is having a hard time with that connection as well. She finds herself with a need to help him even though she doesn’t know him.

This is told in parts so it was a very quick read and it ends on a cliffhanger. So while I wasn’t completely in love with it, I did enjoy it and I’m excited to read part two when it releases!
